COLLINS- LAWRENCE FAMILIES IN ST. LOUIS, MO AREA

I am trying to locate a Minnie Lawrence Collins who was born in Edgecombe County, North Carolina in approximately 1869. Minnie had a twin brother named Marcellus. Her parents were Andrew "Handy" Lawrence and Georgianna (Bullock) Lawrence. Minnie had siblings named: Mary, Clara, Lula "Lou", Floria "Nancy", Ellen, Emma, Molly and a half brother named Willie Proctor.

Minnie contacted her family in 1936 saying she had married a man named Collins,had two grandchildren and was living in St. Louis. This was the LAST contact that anyone had with Minnie.

We are trying to find her descendants for our annual reunion. The next one will take place in Washington, D. C. Please contact me if you know of a Collins family whose roots could be in North Carolina.
